ebix.com, Inc. Reports Second Consecutive Profitable Year

ATLANTA—(BUSINESS WIRE)—April 3, 2002—ebix.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: EBIX—News), a comprehensive insurance portal and leading international supplier of software and e-commerce solutions to the insurance industry, today announced its financial results for the year ended December 31, 2002. The Company reported its second consecutive full year profit, continuing to validate its business model that focuses now on Internet based services related to the insurance industry.

Total revenues were $12.65 million for 2002, a 1.8% percent decrease from revenues of $12.88 million for 2001. Net income for 2002 was $502,000, or $0.22 per share, compared to net income of $118,000 or $0.06 per share for 2001. The increase in Company's net income can be attributed to lower overall operating expenditures associated with moving back-end operations to India and more efficient sales and marketing along with higher services margins from the Company's focus on higher margin development services. The Company's revenue has been derived from the licensing and sale of agency management system software including the recently launched ebixASP system and third-party software, as well as from custom development projects, professional and support services, and fees for policy acceptance and transaction fees generated by ebix.mall.

The Company also reported its results for the fourth quarter of 2002, announcing a net loss of $214,000 or $0.09 per share, compared to a gain of $589,000 or $0.26 for the fourth quarter of 2001. Fourth quarter 2002 revenues were $2.9 million, as compared to revenues of $3.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2001. While the Company's order base increased in 2002 with Internet based ebixASP revenue of approximately $1 million being deferred into future periods, the overall revenue in 2002 decreased because of the company's increased focus on selling Internet based services like ebixASP in 2002, where revenue is recognized over the period of the contract as services are being performed.

"The Company's focus on Internet based products and services resulted in the company growing its order base in the year 2002. While the legacy support revenue declined as anticipated by the management team, the company's efforts in the areas of custom software development and ebixASP related services helped the company fill that revenue shortfall. The Company closed the year 2002 with deferred revenue of $2.9 million with almost $1.0 million related to orders booked in 2002 for ebixASP and custom development that were completed after year end and are ready to go live." said Robin Raina, Chairman, President and CEO. "The results are especially encouraging, since the company has spent the last year making investments in developing new technologies, hiring professional manpower and creating world class infrastructure."

Mr. Raina added: "The year 2002 saw the Company build two fully owned world class facilities in India, with power backups, point-to-point fiber, high speed voice and data networks, state of the art hardware and software and trained manpower targeted towards servicing its customer base globally in the areas of software development and call center services. The year 2002 saw the company triple its employee numbers globally while still managing to grow its profits. Going forward, we believe that the company today has the strength, technology edge and infrastructure to continue to grow profitably."

Raina also said: "The Company's product strategy will focus this year on the worldwide sales and support of agency management systems led by ebixASP; the expansion of connectivity between consumers, agents, carriers and third-party providers on ebix.com and ebixExchange; providing development consulting to brokers, carriers and agents; and providing call center services to various insurance related entities such as agents, carriers, associations etc."

Dick Baum, EVP and CFO said: "In spite of the rapid growth in employee numbers and our investments in new technology and new facilities, we were able to cut operating costs in 2002 by 6.5% compared to a year ago, helping set the Company on a track for increased profitability. The Company's operational costs in 2002 were $11.86 million as compared to $12.7 million in 2001. In addition, the Company's cash situation remains healthy with approximately $5 million in the bank and very little short or long-term debt. We believe that the present cash will be sufficient to sustain our steady progress over the next year".
